* - NEV (Neighborhood Electric Vehicle) is a Federally-approved street-legal vehicle classification.   They are also known as LSV or Low-Speed Vehicles.  This classification came into existence in 1998 under Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard 500 (FMVSS 500).  NEVs can legally travel on streets with a speed limit of 35 mph or less.  They must be licensed, and the driver must be licensed.  Because airbags are not required the NEV cannot travel on highways or freeways.
